The package dracut cannot be installed on Ubuntu 12.10 as it conflicts with the initramfs-tools package. Due to the conflict, the package dracut can never be installed as initramfs-tools cannot be removed.
In an answer to my question regarding this problem on askUbuntu [1] the answer was, that dracut and initramfs-tools should both depend on linux-initramfs-tools (which is a virtual package provided by both initramfs-tools and dracut).
[1] http://askubuntu.com/questions/248970/how-to-install-dracut-on-ubuntu-12-10
I just checked on another installation and dracut is installing fine on Ubuntu 12.04.1.

The package dracut cannot be installed as it conflicts with initramfs-tools package. initramfs-tools is a dependency of many core packages and cannot be removed without removing essential tools like the kernel. For this reason, the package dracut can never be installed.

Either dracut should not Conflict with initramfs-tools (like it did on 12.04) or all the packages that Depend on initramfs-tools should be modified to Depend on the virtual linix-initramfs-tools.
